It’s 11pm, and am I in know means to write a gigantic paragraph that no one will read, but I’m going to try my very hardest to explain what I feel.
I miss Wisconsin - severely miss. And due to playing Bon Iver’s newest album so much, it makes me miss it even more. I’ve been experiencing such a nostalgic emotion that this album has helped me cope with. I can’t even tell if this feeling is subtle or a self inflicted overwhelming one. I close my eyes and I feel as if I’m next to the same pine tree with cold toes in 28 degree weather drinking my overpriced coffee under street lights with powdery snow layered over the tops. I’ve never felt such a vivid memory that it sends a warming chill up my spine and passed my legs and arms. It’s something I can barley explain, and that right there is maybe the best I can do. (Don’t take my word for it, though)
This is a video I made from the filming I did when I was in Wisconsin. Considering that this is my first video, I’m proud of myself, but I know where I need to improve and what I need to change. I used my iPhone, which really surprised me because the quality came out decent. This was so much fun to do, and I hope everyone had wonderful holidays!
This was taken last night. I was really lazy and didn’t feel like writing about my day but so goes:
Yesterday I went to the mall in Appleton. It didn’t look like a farm and it actually had some nice stores. (I do not understand why Wisconsin people need so many fashion citations because they have fashionable stores).
Wisconsin also has made me feel attractive due to the boys out here. I have got some attention from them and it has helped my self esteem. They’re such sweethearts, but I’m not so interested.
Oh and I skyped with one of my best friends Nick for like 20 hours last night.
Today I visited my great auntie, Irine. She’s an 84 year old dwarf who is extremely hard of hearing and has the memory of a fish. I feel terrible for her, but she’s enjoying her life. She was only supposed to live until 40, but she’s so proud of herself. Her personality is great though. She’s partially cynical and I love it.
Then we went to the mausoleum to visit my grandpa. That was nice. I left a pos-it note that said “Dear Grandpa, I hope that one day Cancer is just a Zodiac Sign. Miss and love you, Katelyn”.
Then we went to this meat parlor (the things my family does to me… i’m a vegetarian!). And then I wanted ice cream, but we traveled ALL over, and all ice cream parlors were closed due to cold weather. *sigh.
Today was pretty boring, but once again: I’M IN WISCONSIN.
I made great purchases today though:
Mittens $2.99
Blanket $3.99
Christmas socks $3.99
And exxxxtreeeeeemly sketchy things have been happening. I might make a separate post about the paranormal spiritual things that have been going on, but it’s pretty trippy.
